The strongest astral army in Warhammer 40K

The iron gate was opened, and someone walked in from outside.

"Take him out!" the man said, his voice devoid of any emotion.

Two crusaders opened the prison doors and took Russell out.

He was then carried by two men to the castle's main hall. The blinding sunlight made it impossible for him to open his eyes until he entered the castle, at which point he could finally see clearly what was inside.

By this time, there were already quite a few people in the hall: Kayans, the Inquisitor, the Missionary, a demi-human "Elephant Man," and two Space Marines holding shields.

A moment later, two more people walked in from outside. One was a Space Marine wearing Ironclad Terminator armor, and the other was "Lionman, Yokozuna".

The Yokozuna who had just entered saw Russell lying on the ground. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

The Space Marine in the Ironclad Terminator armor was the Second Company Commander of the Name of the Shield Chapter, "Aksu".

The judge glanced at Yokozuna and said: Do you know this Star Guardian?

Yokozuna nodded quickly and said: I know him, he has helped us many times.

The judge continued: Is there any interest involved among you?

Yokozuna shook his head and said: He never asked for anything.

"Do you know that helping you without permission is a capital offense?"

"I don't know, but I don't think this is the fault of the Star Guardian. I was the one who asked him for help." Yokozuna didn't want to hide anything and told the truth.

The judge nodded and said: This matter was a misunderstanding from the beginning. After I received Mazels' message, I rushed here immediately. Just yesterday, I received a message from the leader of the "Name of the Aegis" chapter. The demi-humans in this world have a close cooperative relationship with them, and many demi-humans are serving in the Name of the Aegis.

Russell heard it clearly, and a powerful sense of injustice welled up in his heart, causing tears to flow uncontrollably.

“But Maziers did a great job on this, and you all did a good job too.”

After saying this, the judge glanced at Russell and said: "Lieutenant Russell, this three-day detention is just to teach you a lesson. Remember, you cannot help the 'Alien' without orders from your superiors."

Russell struggled to his feet and said, "Thank you, Your Honor."

With quick reflexes, Kayans helped Russell up and said to the judge, "Your Honor, may we leave?"

The judge nodded and said: You may leave.

He helped Russell leave and return to his residence.

"You're really lucky to have escaped with your life this time," Kayans said, still shaken.

Russell lay on the bed, weakly saying, "This time I owe you, and I will repay you in the future."

Kayans' eyes reddened slightly as he said, "Don't say such things. This time, it was all thanks to the Emperor's blessing, otherwise you would really be finished."

When the Inquisition's fleet appeared in this sea of ​​stars, the Shield's intelligence agency discovered it. They knew very well why the Alien Inquisition had come here, so the intelligence agency quickly contacted the Chapter Master, who immediately tried to make contact with the Inquisition.

If their response had been a few days slower, Russell would have been dead.

After a few days of rest, Russell's health gradually recovered. During this time, he had been in a very low mood, but fortunately, Cayans kept him company and made him laugh.

While the two were chatting that day, the Space Marine wearing the Ironclad Terminator armor arrived.

The Space Marines, clad in Terminator armor, appeared even taller, and Aksu was no exception, standing before the two like a steel giant.

"You can call me Aksu. I am the second company commander of the Name of the Shield Chapter."

Russell, Kayans quickly stood up straight and saluted the Terminator Space Marine, then Kayans said: I am Captain Kayans of the 357th Cardia Commando Regiment, and I am Lieutenant Russell.

Aksu nodded and said: "I came to find you today because I want to take you away from here to a planet called Zhalaka."

"Why go there?" Kayans asked.

"A rebellion is taking place there!"

Kayans had no reason to refuse and said: "Yes, sir."

“But before we leave, there are some things we need to do. You need to participate as well!” Aksu said.

"Anything else?"

"Yes, to be precise, there are two things. The first is to help the Yokozuna kill more Three-Faced Lion Scorpions, and the second is to help them eliminate the Cave-Dwelling Snake People."

Kayans stood there stunned and asked: But what about the courtroom?

"The Tribunal has agreed, so we can help them without worry. I came here with the orders of the Chapter Commander, so I brought an elite strike team of ten Terminator warriors, plus five Arbitrator teams, for a total of 60 warriors."

"But sir, there are many cave-dwelling snake people, and they have powerful healing abilities."

Aksu chuckled and said: "Their recovery ability is a joke in front of the Arbitrators' team."

Russell didn't know what the Arbitrators' team actually represented, so he couldn't answer and just stood there scratching his head.

The Name of the Aegis is a second-tier chapter with ten companies. According to the Codex Astartes, each company has one thousand men, and the second company is the strongest in terms of combat power.

"Get ready, I've already called the Thunder Eagle fighter jets." Aksu then left.

"Sixty people think they can wipe out the cave-dwelling snake people? That's just wishful thinking!" Russell shook his head.

“I also think it’s impossible. The Space Marines are very strong, but their numbers are just too small.” Kayans agreed.

Both men were skeptical of the Space Marines.

The Thunderhawk fighter jet slowly landed in the poisonous miasma land, and three Iron Cavalry Terminator warriors walked out from it. Each Terminator warrior held a diamond-shaped shield in one hand and a precision-engineered power axe in the other.

The power axe emitted a continuous blue light, and faint arcs of electricity flashed across its surface.

Yokozuna, Russell, Kayans, and fifty Astral Army soldiers emerged from another Thunderhawk fighter.

"You are responsible for obtaining the poison, and we are responsible for killing the Three-Faced Lion Scorpion," Aksu told Yokozuna and the others.

After speaking, Aksu strode forward, and with each step, the Iron Cavalry-type Terminator armor emitted a metallic scraping sound and the sound of air pressure.

In comparison, even the mighty lion-man guards, the "Yokozuna," pale in comparison.

The surrounding poisonous fog began to shake violently, and five three-faced lion scorpions emerged from it, eyeing the uninvited guests menacingly.

"Attack!" Aksu roared, activating his power backpack and charging towards a three-faced lion scorpion.

The three-faced lion scorpion also roared and charged towards Aksu.
